Currently I go into phpMyAdmin, export my database as a text file and then save it with the application files before I commit things to svn (or git). Then of course, I’ve got to import it to production.
Is there a better way?

If you don’t have something like rails migrate, are in java environment or anything else, check out liquibase. It’s pretty cool if you need that much flexibility. We just track .sql files which setup the entire database.
